Tomb Raider to Feature AMD's, Cystal Dynamics' TressFX Hair

Both images look like garbage. Time to chuck the current engine into the trash and design a new engine from scratch, I think.

Those shadows below the hair! What are they thinking! how can teh hair have such hard dark shadows. The shadows should be very soft or not visible at all. Because light bends around small objects such as hair. Elementary physics. Remove the shadow calculations and i bet you could noticeably decrease the fps hit.

The most prominent of these features is TressFX, the first in-game implementation of a real-time, per strand physics engine that gives Lara Croft an "astonishingly lifelike appearance".

Still doesn't make TressFX/Tomb Raider the first, thus meaning the statement is still wrong.

Oops multipost, sorry.
